[4] It is primarily agricultural with a flourishing commercial activity. It has two sitios: Malilong and Kinuaw. Zamboanguita has one public elementary school, administered by the Department of Education, Division of Malaybalay [5]

According to a narrative by the barangay government of Zamboanguita, the area was once known as Langga. In April 1956, then Malaybalay Mayor Lorenzo Dinlayan with his staff Alejandro Bansing and Teodoro Perino visited Langga to incorporate the village into the city. The village was then renamed into Zamboanguita at Perino's suggestion due to the houses being made up of samwang and his admiration for the city of Zamboanga. The name Zamboaguita is a Spanish diminutive of Zamboanga, in which the place literally means "Little Zamboanga." In 1968, Zamboanguita was incorporated as a sitio of Caburacanan and had an organized administration. On March 4, 1985, Zamboanguita was converted into a barangay by virtue of a municipal ordinance.
